Chapter 356 Let's find someone else to pursue.
Xia Zhaodi looked up at her sister.
Xia Laidi handed the basket she was carrying to her younger sister: "Go ahead."
Xia Zhaodi then entered the courtyard first.
Yunyi took a few steps outside.
Xia Laidi hurriedly followed.
"Do you know why I called you?" Yunyi looked at Xia Laidi.
"You want to ask me about my relationship with Brother Dazhuang, right?"
“Yes.” Yunyi nodded. “Xia Laidi, you’re a smart person, so I won’t beat around the bush.”
Xia Laidi was a little uneasy, her fingers nervously twisting the hem of her clothes back and forth.
“What I hate most is deception and scheming.” Yunyi’s eyes turned cold. “You know, Zhao Dazhuang is my man. He has skills and works for me, which means he will be involved in some of my secrets.”
Xia Laidi stared in surprise, but quickly lowered her head.
"However, I also hope he can get married and settle down, but this wife must have good character, you understand?"
Xia Laidi's face immediately turned bright red: "Yunyi, I didn't scheme against Brother Dazhuang." She paused for a moment, "I did think about changing my and Zhaodi's lives by marrying him, but he wasn't interested in me, so I... I gave up on the idea."
Yunyi looked at the other person quietly, her expression calm.
“That day, I really slipped into the water by accident.” Xia Laidi’s eyes reddened slightly. “I went to do laundry without having lunch, and when I got up, my vision blurred and I… However, when I found out that he was the one who saved me, I was secretly happy. But when my mother really wanted to make someone take responsibility, I stopped her. I didn’t want to repay kindness with enmity.”
"As for why I took care of my aunt later, it was because... I wanted to repay her kindness. Of course, I also had the intention of currying favor, but I really didn't have any ulterior motives."
Yunyi nodded: "Since you said you didn't scheme, I'll believe you."
"What?" Xia Laidi's eyes widened in surprise. "You said...you said..."
"I said I believe what you said." Yunyi could tell from his face that although he was a little cunning, he was still a good person. "I just calculated an auspicious day for Brother Dazhuang. You can just wait at home."
"You...I..." Xia Laidi's tears suddenly fell.
"However, I have no idea whether your parents will ask for an exorbitant amount and scare people away."
"Don't worry, I... I won't let my mother do anything reckless."
Yunyi smiled and nodded, then left.
Xia Laidi covered her face and cried hard for a while. After wiping her face clean, she smiled and walked towards the Zhao family's house, saying, "Auntie, I'm here."
Xiao Jinxiu had already packed her things, and when she saw Yunyi return, she brought them out: "Shall we leave now?"
"Let's go." Yunyi nodded, said goodbye to Liu Mei and the others, and went out the door. Xiaobai was already waiting there.
Xiao Jinxiu had never ridden a horse before, but she has learned to now. She even picked a relatively small and quiet wild horse with red and white fur, which was now following behind Xiao Bai.
As a result, the two of them got on horseback, but Yunhong didn't come over.
"Where did that girl go again?" Yun Yi frowned, but just as she was about to call out, she heard the sound of weapons clashing in the distance. She looked over and found that Yun Hong and Jian Hou were fighting.
"What are they doing?" Xiao Jinxiu asked in surprise.
"You're asking me? Who should I ask?" Yunyi shrugged.
“Ask me,” Old Zhou leaned closer.
"Old Zhou, you know?"
“Yes, young lady.” Old Zhou nodded. “Just now, that man surnamed Jianzi came over and harassed Hong. Hong said she wanted to castrate him.”
Castrated? Yunyi blinked. Was it the one she was thinking of?
Old Zhou understood, and nodded vigorously: "Girl, it's the kind of castration you're thinking of, the kind that makes you a eunuch."
Yunyi's lips twitched.
"Miss Hong, have mercy! I was wrong!" Jianhou realized he was no match for this woman and hurriedly begged for mercy, "I'll never dare to do it again. I just love you, but I didn't express it clearly..."
"You like me?" Yun Hong scoffed. "Don't disgust me. Let me tell you, there are plenty of good men in my Great Zhou. Why should I choose a man from your Northern Liang? Just because you all smell like mutton?"
"You... you can only criticize me, you can't attack everyone. Not all men smell like mutton, you know. Look at my General, he doesn't, and neither do I." Jian Hou was already in a sorry state, he didn't expect this girl to be so fierce if she really wanted to fight.
Of course, there was also a reason why he didn't dare to resist with all his might, after all, he was on someone else's turf, and this girl was that aunt's personal maid.
Yun Hong ignored him and instead increased the speed of her attacks.
"Help!" Jian Hou could only dodge for a moment, then turned and ran. When he saw Yun Yi, he rushed over and cried, "Grandma, help me!"
Before Yunyi could move, Xiaobai barked twice, then kicked out with its hind legs after landing on its front legs.
"My goodness!" Jianhou's face changed, and he hurriedly did a somersault in the air, changing his direction and narrowly avoiding the two hooves. He landed on the ground and rolled over before regaining his balance. "You're bullying me too much!"
“We don’t usually bully people.” Yun Hong also caught up.
"Grandma, I was wrong." Jianhou hurriedly put his hands together and begged for forgiveness. "I was really wrong, please have mercy."
Yun Hong snorted coldly, then sheathed her sword and put her finger in her mouth, letting out a whooshing sound.
A white horse with a tuft of black hair on its head galloped over from a distance. This was her mount, chosen from among the wild horses, and named Black Snow. However, this fellow had always been at odds with Yunyi's Little White.
The reason is that Hei Xue once pursued Lao Quan's mount, Xiao Hei, but Xiao Hei ultimately chose Xiao Bai, so Hei Xue has always been unconvinced.
For example, right now, Black Snow snorted twice at Little White, looking very disdainful.
However, Little White was always very calm and didn't pay any attention to it. After all, it was its master's mount. No matter how dissatisfied Black Snow was, it was still the girl's mount and would always be inferior to it.
However, looking at this guy, it missed its wife, Little Black. It wondered if there would be any danger if it went to the Western Regions with her. Sigh, life is tough for a horse.
Yun Hong mounted her horse, not even glancing at Jian Hou, and followed Yun Yi away.
"You coward." Mu Li walked over speechlessly. "Serves you right for not having a wife."
"General, you're being unfair." Jian Hou stood up, dusting himself off. "You're not even helping me."
"It's not that I don't want to take care of you, it's that I dare not take care of you." Mu Li spread his hands innocently. "But I sincerely suggest that you find another woman to pursue. That Red Girl is not suitable for you."
